How do you Design?

December 11th, 2008

Today, we discuss about an online book - how do you design? — that provides a review on cross-displine design processes. The book is a compendium of industrial, UI, and software design models, and it classifies design models into several categories, such as academic models, consultant models, etc.

The most interesting part highlighted in the discussion is the Rational Unified Process (RUP) model, that contains a vertical dimension to represent process disciplines by grouping software engineering activities. If you are a software engineer, this model might be easier for you to understand the design process well.
